Whatsapee is a web based bot for Whatsapp. This project is heavily inspired by bruno222/whatsapp-web-bot

A good substitute till WhatsApp releases their API to the public. However this code is not perfect for production it has a few bugs.

1. How to use it
2. Bot Logic
3. FAQ
4. Examples
5. Todo
6. Known Issues

• Clone the repo.

• Install the latest npm and nodeJS for your platform.

• Then in repo folder run the following commands

  npm install
  then run
  npm start

• Signin using QR code and see the bot run your logic, stored in logic.js

Have a friend text you this commands: @help or hi bot

All code goes into the logic.js file WhatsApee has two function that you can use

WhatsApee.start( receiver callback); 

sets the callback for the message handler. It should take three arguments :

• message : body of message
• chatElem : chat div element which is used as an identifier
• title : chat title

WhatsApee.send(chat Elem is like chat id , message to send goes here);

sends message to the chosen element .It takes two arguments :

• chatElem : chat div element which is used as an identifier
• message : body of message

const path = require('path')
const WhatsApee = require(path.join(__dirname, 'WhatsApee.js'))
//WhatsAppe.start( receiver callback)
WhatsApee.start(receiver);

function receiver (message,chatElem,title) {
     //message to lower case
   var lcMessage = message.toLowerCase();
     if (lcMessage.includes("hi bot")) {                  
                 var welcomeMessage = `Hi , hooman`;   
                 //WhatsApee.send(chat Elem is like chat id , message to send goes here)               
                 WhatsApee.send(chatElem,welcomeMessage);                  
     }  
     
}

Yes, it is.

Hum, so you already know that Whatsapp does not allow Bots, right?

Well, you're right: Whatsapp will ban you forever if they discovery you are running a Bot on long-term. For a small test: Don't worry, go forward.

I can't guarantee that you are not getting banned in a long term using this Bot. I really don't think so, but I can't guarantee.

Hold on mate, there are kids here.

First, yowsup is a great python library! Simply awesome.

But their problem is: They connect to Whatsapp servers directly, without any middlware. So it is not so hard for whatsapp team to create ban-rules you if you are using yowsup.

I got banned many times in past, so I know, soon or later, you will get banned as well. Is just a matter of time. You can see that I am probably right just looking here, here, here and here.

That's why I did this code. Using whatsapp web, it is almost impossible for whatsapp team to know that you are running a Bot.

A lot of limitations!

1. As you are handling DOM direcly, you can't process hundred of messages at once. Yowsup is much better at this subject.

2. You can't start a message with a unknown person. You can only answer them, mainly because you can't add a new fellow on the Contacts list on Whatsapp Web.

3. You have to install Whatsapp on your phone, connect it on Wifi and keep it charging all the time. So you have to have a cellphone exclusively for this Bot. You will need a computer with software running as well. But that's the main objective: In order to avoid being detect as a Bot, so you have to play this boring cat-and-rat game.

Yes, there are.

1. Your friend can't send @HELP followed of any other message really fast. This Bot only reads the last message. It's a buggy (that can be fixed)

Feel free to fix and PR it.

• WhatsApeeBot

• better message detection
• diagflow AI bot
• image upload capabilities
• add support for business accounts

• Does not work with business accounts
